IMPORTANT
Please ensure when fishing any of our beats that you shut all gates, take care where there is livestock, and park cars in designated areas. No vehicles are allowed into fields. Clients are responsible for damage to stock, crops, or fences.
Use common sense when fishing: strong currents and deep water are a feature of most salmon rivers, so take care when wading. The use of wading sticks and wearing of life belts is encouraged, particularly if you feel you need to!

Our beats are generally 20-30 minutes drive from Ballyvolane, so you will need a car.
